Star trails from Pathar Nachuni

Star trails were in my ToDo list to try for a while now ... but never managed to do it in a star-lit sky outside city limits till now. Most of the time, it will be the lack of a tripod, remote or lack of charge in the camera battery. This time though, I had two fully charged batteries, a tripod and the remote borrowed from Avinash.
The moon was up for most of the night and expected to set around mid-night. I got up by about 2, go uphill, set up the camera, took a few test shots and put the camera in bulb mode. A lot of things went wrong while I was trying to get a good shot, including the cold and occassional wind, due to which I left the camera in the open and waited at the tent for most times. Long story short, sun-light was out as early as 4 and this is th ebest shot I managed till then. Will be trying again at some other trek ...
